Lets face it, women love their handbags. Many men around the world will always be confused by this, they seem to have the ability to store everything they need in their inside pocket. Well, women have a lot more essential items than men, we have lipstick, mascara, perfume, purse, mobile phone, glossy magazines and the like. Handbags also have the ability to change the look of a whole outfit, bags come in all shapes and sizes, styles, materials and of course brands. If you are looking for a large yet trendy bag, you may want to have a look at these companies:-

Chloe – Chloe has been around for a long time (since 1952) and has this canny ability to produce ranges of handbags which have women drooling – including celebs. A lot of handbags on the market just aren’t practical – they can barely hold a single lipstick never mind all our other essential accessories. This is probably why the Chloe Paddington bags are often seen on the arm of a celebrity in the glossy mags.

Kate Spade – When Kate left college in 1986 she joined mademoiselle magazine and left in 1991 as senior fashion editor/head of accessories. Frustrated by the lack of fashionable yet practical bags she set out design her own. Since launching her range of “Kate Spade Handbags” in 1996 she has won many awards for her designs.

If you felt before a bit of a frump for carrying around a large handbag then you really needn’t. Ditch your old bag and get a new one. There are a lot of styles which are very popular, even if you don’t go for a designer brand. Search the internet for hobo, satchels, shoulder bags, totes, plus you can even get the most amazing array of diaper bag for fashionable mums.

Most moms secretly long for a designer handbag, but many of them will not spend the extra money when there are so many other things that their family needs. Mother’s Day and Christmas are great opportunities for a person to shower his or her mom with the luxuries that she has always desired, but would never buy for herself.

Jenny’s Chloe Handbag Story

Jenny’s mom had always wanted a Chloe handbag. She loved to look at the new styles of Chloe handbags that the stars were carrying in the weekly magazines. But as a single mom, there was no way that she could afford to buy one; saving for a Chloe handbag seemed frivolous since there were so many other things that the family needed. So Jenny’s mom just satisfied herself with admiring the Chloe handbags from afar.

Jenny swore that one day she would buy her mom a Chloe handbag. After all, her mother deserved one after all those years of sacrificing for her family. As soon as Jenny got her first job, she began saving for that Chloe handbag for her mom. From her first day of work until her mom’s birthday, Jenny had nine months to save for her surprise gift.

A Childhood Inspiration

As a child, Jenny heard an inspirational story of a mother who was always setting aside her desires in order to put her family’s needs first. As a young woman, she married a good man and hoped that one day he would be able to give her a diamond ring even though they couldn’t afford it right away. Her husband loved her so much that he wanted to give her whatever she wanted, but he didn’t have the money for diamonds. So he told her that they would save for a diamond little by little.

By the time they had saved enough money for her diamond ring, their first child was born and they used the diamond money for much needed baby expenses. The couple then had a second child. Those children had to be put through college and then they had their own weddings to pay for. Needless to say, the diamond fund was used many times for reasons other than the purchase of the woman’s diamond ring.

Time went on and the husband retired from his job. With his retirement money, he finally purchased his wife the diamond she had always wanted. At that point, her son and daughter-in-law announced that they were expecting their first child. A young couple in love, just as the woman herself had once been, the son and daughter-in-law had not been able to afford a diamond either. The woman, in her usual self-sacrificing style, handed her diamond ring over to her daughter-in-law saying that she was too old to appreciate its beauty.

Saving is Hard

Jenny could not express how hard it was to save $50 every month for her mom’s Chloe handbag. But after almost a year, she had finally saved enough to make her mom’s dream come true. Jenny bought the best Chloe handbag she could afford and it was truly beautiful. The look on her mom’s face when Jenny gave the Chloe handbag to her was more reward than she could have ever imagined and made each month of setting aside the money well worth the sacrifice.

First things first, a photo handbag is a bag that has your favorite picture on it. Currently, there are a lot of companies which offer photo handbags and which you get to ultimately design your very own picture perfect photo.

One such provider of cool photo handbags is Gina Alexander. She has outlined three easy steps to be able to order and have your own photo handbag. The first ever step in order to order your very own designer photo handbag at Gina Alexander is the selection of your favorite photo.

So far, this has been considered by some as the process that is quite difficult. It all depends on the shape of your photo handbag. The picture you have chosen will eventually be pasted and featured on each side of your photo handbag as well as the lid top.

However, if you still cannot choose between two photos of your liking, you could actually choose both with one photo on one side and the second photo on the other side of the photo handbag! An additional fifty dollars is all it takes for the second picture to be placed on your very own customized photo handbag.

The next step is in the selection of the shape of the bag. Whatever shape you get to choose, it is always an amazing way to turn your photos to a sentimental expression as well as your own cool and unique fashion statement.

The final step is in placing your order. Believe it or not, you could actually place your photo handbag order through the internet with your chosen photo scanned or sent in digital form. You could also snail mail your picture and send it to the customer service department of the Gina Alexander collection.

Why photo handbags?

Believe it or not, this is a very uncommon and therefore extremely original gift that couples in their wedding anniversaries would go for. A photo handbag is also a great gift idea for those new mothers who have their babies. Imagine giving them a bag that has the picture of their beautiful baby’s faces on it. It simply melts the heart.

A photo handbag is also a convenient way to make your gift truly special. Giving a photo handbag signifies your thoughtfulness and sensitivity to actually making your gift special instead of simply buying something off the shelf.

Photo handbags are something that most people value and appreciate for a long time. It is a reminder of the moments and faces of people that are deemed special.

A photo handbag is something that a woman – most especially – will get to use most of the time each day. It is also a subtle statement – both fashion-wise and relationship-wise – which allows her to flaunt either her relationship with a significant other (that is if the photo handbag is of her and her beloved partner) or a picture of her child.

Single people would also enjoy a photo handbag. They could have a picture of their dog, friends or themselves on it.

All in all, the possibilities are limitless. A photo handbag could be enjoyed by children and adults alike, particularly women and children. Your own imagination is the only limit you could put upon yourself as a hindrance to truly enjoying your very own photo handbag.

Louis Vuitton is a world-class company that continually innovates, but its clientèle remains the same: upper class and well-heeled. That’s why the authentic Louis Vuitton handbag the average woman dreams of is simply beyond the reach of many. That makes having a Louis Vuitton replica handbag instead a more realistic option for those who still want to own a small piece of this brand.

Greenspun and Basic Replica

But where can you find Louis Vuitton replica handbags? There are actually many places to find them if you know where to look. Greenspun is one place that offers a wide selection of Louis Vuitton replica handbags. Aside from Greenspun, Basic Replica is another great source of Louis Vuitton replica handbags. In addition, Basic Replica manufactures their inspired counterparts with exceptional quality assurance.

The collections found in these two sources of Louis Vuitton replica handbags include the Monogram Collection, Black Murakami Collection, White Murakami Collection, Denim Collection, Men’s Collection and Ambre Collection.

The lesser known, but also rather popular Detail collection includes the following in its roster: Denim Neo Speedy, Neo Speedy, Louis Vuitton Denim Flat Shopper, Pleaty Denim and the Sac Fermoir GM.

Wherever you choose to purchase your Louis Vuitton handbag, whether you settle for a Louis Vuitton replica handbag or the authentic handbag, remember to take your time selecting the bag of your dreams to ensure that you get the best deal possible for your money.

With all of the handbags available to women these days it is hard not to spot a designer one somewhere in the public eye. Designer handbags seem to have taken over. You can see designer not only in the magazines and television, but right in your own neighborhood. There was a time when the only places you would see designer handbags would be in print, the big screen or people with big bucks.

Now-a-days, you can spot a Louis Vuitton or Gucci handbag by just walking through the mall.The times have changed with everything, but mainly in the fashion world. What use to be cool in the baby boomer’s era is not so cool now in fashion.

The one item that seems to never falter is the handbag. The designs and styles may change, but the look remains the same. You can still spot a Louis now as you could 20-30 years ago. The same with brands like Dooney & Bourke and Coach. These brands have stayed true to their original for as long as they have been in existence. Those are the brands that people trust and always go back to time and time again.

Dooney & Bourke is a designer handbag brand that has been around since 1975. Although, it started out with two guys from Connecticut, who first started out making belts and suspenders, it has launched into a multi-billion dollar company with handbags that the world over admire and cherish.

The styles and colors of the handbags have changed over the years, but the ever popular DB symbol and All-Weather leather remains the same. The All-Weather leather handbags are just as the name implies. They are able to withstand all types of weather. These bags are waterproof, made of 100% cowhide, which means water just runs off of it like it would a real cow. Funny if you think of it that way.

Dooney handbags have become one of the largest named handbag brands in America. Next to Coach, it has become one of the fastest growing fashion companies. With its prices being so affordable and the ability to own a Dooney being so accessible, it’s no wonder the Dooney & Bourke name has grown over the past decade.

You can find Dooney & Bourke handbags in more places than most designer handbags. They can be found in their own store in New York, in outlets throughout the U.S., in boutiques and in abundance on the Internet. Dooney & Bourke is all over the Internet. With just a quick search you can find these bags in many online stores being sold brand spankin’ new. You can even get them off of live auctions online.

These auctions offer new or slightly used items and sell for the much lower prices than in the stores. I have seen it done. The bids can start at .99 and can go as far up to $250.00 for a bag or as low as $75.00 for a brand new bag. It really depends on how well the bidding is going. Most people don’t want a bidding war so they back down easily. Which leaves the prices dirt cheap. How great is that for us.

Next time you are looking for a designer handbag like the Dooney or Coach, do a search for them and you will see for yourself how inexpensive it is to get that legendary designer handbag for much less than you would in the stores.

Are you ready to find out just how you can get those Dooney & Bourke handbags for a steal?

It will be yours soon enough. Come visit my web page at http://www.squidoo.com/dooney-bourke-handbags and see for yourself the savings.

Large handbags in a range of colors are de rigeur for today’s work or play. But when the sun goes down, dress-up and evening bags also have a distinctive look that defines them as au courant.

“The evening bag of the moment is a clutch,” declares Che, a Los Angeles designer and stylist for celebrities, who also works on large commercial campaigns. “Exotic skins like crocodile, washed lizard and python are popular right now.”

“Patent leather is very popular this spring and summer,” adds Daria Hines, personal stylist to Fergie, solo star and member of the multi-platinum-selling group Black Eyed Peas. “People want shiny—and colorful.” She also agrees that skins, like snakeskin are in great demand.

The reason clutches are in style, fashion experts contend, is that they look adorable, they’re lightweight and easy to carry, and they don’t detract from an outfit. Yet the reason they are so beloved—their small size—is also their biggest drawback. “A clutch doesn’t hold very much,” admits Che, referring to some of the smallest clutches that are fashionable this season. “Just keys, money, I.D. and lipstick.”

The good news, of course, is that if you’re out for just a few hours attending a party or an evening affair, odds are, you don’t need to carry very much. Whichever clutch you choose, however, you can always remind yourself that what your purse lacks in size, it makes up for in style.

Here’s a look at some of the dress-up evening bags of the moment:

For those who can spend a large amount of cash on a small purse, the top-of-the-line designers offer a myriad of choices. Chanel, Yves Saint Laurent and Fendi all offer amazing—and expensive—clutches in alligator and python, lambskin, calfskin, and patent leather.

A Fendi favorite is the crossword patent clutch, above ($920). Black patent panels have oversized coated leather Fendi letters (mirror-like in appearance) woven over the zip-top bag, which has a satin lining.

The priciest bags are certainly pretty, but most women don’t want to forfeit a fortune when buying a new party purse. Enter Hobo International, a company that offers stylish clutches at affordable prices. According to their Web site, www.hobobags.com, the line is designed by women for women. The Hobo Arden ($110) is a petite leather clutch which comes in black, cameo pink, celadon, linen, and sepia. The front of the clutch is adorned with a pretty big bow which dominates the face. The Madeleine ($115), also leather, comes in the same colors as the Arden, but features a silver circle belt buckle instead of bow. The Tina ($115) mirrors the Madeleine but is made of crinkle patent leather, and is offered in vivid colors, including citron, cobalt, and red.

Add a little spice to your evening with clutches by Lodis (www.lodis.com). The Slim Clamshell Clutch ($170) is patent leather with a glossy wave overlay and shiny nickel hardware. It has as a twist closure that opens or magnetic “wings” that open on both sides for convenient access to credit card slots, an ID window and bill compartments. A strap is also included. The Slim Clamshell comes in chartreuse, tangerine or baby blue.

New York designer Betsey Johnson (www.betseyjohnson.com), “known for her celebration of the exuberant, the embellished, and the over the top,” according to the description on her Web site, presents the rather tame and classy Peddle Pusher Clutch ($195) in black and silver. Simple and elegant, the clutch is accented by a decorative belt buckle.

Another trendy choice for evening bags is a wristlet. Essentially the same size and shape as a clutch, it includes a small wrist strap, which comes in handy for dancing and most important, as a way to prevent you from leaving your bag behind.

When designing their bags, the go-to manufacturer of leather, Coach (www.coach.com) ensures each product embodies the perfect balance between aesthetics and functionality. The Zoe leather clutch ($258) is a sleek little bag combining a modern profile with timeless detailing. In Nappa leather with leather trim, it has an inside zip pocket, cellphone/multi-function pocket and turnlock closure. You can choose between chartreuse and brass. Also new from Coach are straw wristlets ($168) that feature metallic trim and chain straps; they’re available in bark, gold, grass and vermillion.

Prada’s Miu Miu line (www.miumiu.com) offers a funky metallic wristlet clutch ($170) This bag adds just the right zip to a basic black party dress.

In the recent past, there was only one consideration for choosing a good diaper bag: with or without yellow duckies? Thanks in part to the boon of celebrity babies, style has finally caught up with parenting gear.

But the birth of the designer diaper bag is not merely an idle fad. Looking deeper into the metamorphosis of diaper bags from burlap sacks to high-end designer accessories, I have found that the root of the change is the shifting gender profile of both women and men.

Hollywood Masculinity

Consider this: because diaper bags used to only be made for women, baby-toting fathers were forced to shirk around in public with flowery-looking gear. Not today; fathers are no longer chided for helping take care of their babies; they’re celebrated for helping out.

My evidence is that many Hollywood fathers — the most visible and influential examples of modern masculinity — have been seen carrying diaper bags, including Brad Pitt, Tom Cruise and David Arquette.

The diaper bags these men are toting are rugged in design, or gender-neutral. Popular styles now include camouflage, dark colors, black leather, and even designs made from recycled materials like old tires or seatbelts! Watch men’s designer diaper bags in the near future; they’re booming not just because of celebrity fad but because of a changing sense of what it means to be a man. In a word: Daddy-spice.

Designer Diaper Bags and Feminism

Another piece of the puzzle about this curious style transformation is that attitudes about carrying diaper bags to work have softened in recent years. After all, 72% of American mothers now work outside the home. In response to the upsurge of working mothers, many diaper bags resemble attaché cases as well as purses.

Corporate culture no longer frowns upon childcare realities like it did a generation ago. Sleek and “no-nonsense” diaper bags help working moms blend their child-rearing duties with their office responsibilities. Also, with flex-time schedules being more common in the workplace, mothers are more free to trade off the baby gear with their partners at the office.

In my opinion, the increased visibility of working mothers has directly led to the fresh look for diaper bags. Certainly, the new culture of working moms means no longer shaving to hide the frumpy and neon-colored diaper bag in the corner. The wide choice of diaper bags now available at the local department store can also be seen as one of the unintended fruits of feminism. Who knew that the women’s movement would spell the demise of yellow duckies?

OiOi Chocolate and Pink Messenger Bag

So, next time your are distraught over all the choices in designer diaper bags, consider that the diaper bag is a cultural artifact that is reflecting changes in the social construction of gender. Maybe it won’t help with the ultimate decision (a sleek handheld or maybe recycled camo?) but it may empower you to join the cultural creators.

Think I’m being coy? Look how Brad Pitt is using his celebrity status these days. He’s saving the world, one designer diaper bag at a time.

Handbag specialist Kate Spade has come a long way since its first store opened in SoHo, New York, in 1996. The range of its products has extended to include such items as shoes, sunglasses, organizers and other accessories, as well as baby paraphernalia. Yet the Kate Spade name remains synonymous with handbags, its original product and trademark. Kate Spade handbags are prized possessions that continue to fulfill their function of completing your getup while keeping you in step with the latest in fashion.

Kate Spade Handbags: Classic Lines and Timeless Designs

Clean lines and uncomplicated silhouettes are design features typically seen in Kate Spade handbags. Its designer shuns flashiness and loud colors. The brand name has maintained an understated elegance for the Kate Spade handbags and this is refreshing in the world of fashion, which thrives on change. This trade name’s designs will simply never go out of fashion because they are based on the principle of timelessness. Kate Spade handbags are classic. Every woman should have one.

In fact, Kate Spade handbags are found in many women’s closets and have remained a staple accessory. Women who patronize the signature Kate Spade handbags need not worry about being caught “recycling” or going out of style with every new season. Even the classic Kate Spade handbag made of nylon, which in 1993 took the fashion world by storm, still remains as stylish and sought-after as it did then — a true testament to Kate Spade handbags’ staying power.

Form and Function in Kate Spade Handbags

If classic colors has come to mean anything close to black, then owners of original Kate Spade handbags need not worry either because these have always been presented in dark colors. Yet the brand can be versatile. Practically every new collection of Kate Spade handbags features a novel type of fabric or uses color in ways that can neither be called boring nor safe.

Watching your little baby girl grow up is an experience no dad or mom will ever want to miss. Getting the chance to watch her bloom from a little baby to a darling little princess will be such a joy. Each and every year you celebrate her birthday and wonder why time has flown so fast. One moment she stays all day in her crib cooing and playing and the next moment she is going to pajama parties and sleep-overs.

All through the years you have bought her gifts for every occasion conceivable. From little baby toys, to dolls and now your pride and joy has grown up and you have observed her take a liking to dresses and such. A shift of interest that is inevitable.

So what do you get her next? It looks like she already has tons of shoes in different colors. She even has make up already. What gift could you give her this year that would not only show you love her but also a gift that she would truly appreciate?

Early teeners just can’t wait to grow up. They are now messing around with their mothers stuff and plays make believe that she is already a grown up. They tend to act like they are grown ups already and would want things that are associated with adults.

A photo bag would certainly be a gift that would show that you see what interests her and makes her happy. This will also show that you are acknowledging her developments and yet show her that she is still your baby and will always be.

Giving her a photo bag would most probably be appreciated and treasured than a regular store bought bag which could be just one of hundreds of others just like it. Many children today want to go against the flow; they don’t want something that others already have, especially in a bag. When they are unique, they get a special feeling and they get the attention that they need.

Getting your precious daughter a photo bag is not as hard as it seems. Even though you live in a town where no shops offer this kind of service, you wouldn’t have a hard time getting one just in time for the celebration. As a matter of fact, it is easier to just shop around the internet.

All you need is a digital photo that you think your daughter would love to show to the world and to all her friends. Try to talk to your spouse and get his or her advice. Check out all the photos that you have, if you don’t have digitized photos yet, you can just have them scanned.

The Classic Tote

If you have a digital camera, then you can just easily get a recent photo of hers. Another great idea is to gather a number of photos that she likes and do a collage of it. Then the collage can be printed on the bag.

After selecting the design that you want and the photo as well, you can just easily upload it to the site where you will be ordering the photo bag. Then all you have to do is pay for the bag, give it to your address and have it delivered. It will definitely be a gift she will appreciate for a long time.

Raise your hand if you’ve ever heard of the brand named Coach? I’m almost positive your hand went up. If you haven’t heard of the name, someone you know has for sure. You quite possibly have seen a Coach store or merchandise in various malls, shops, or boutiques. You may have even stumbled upon an outlet mall in your travels. For more than 60 years, Coach has been in existence. In 1941, the brand began from a small family run business, in a small Manhattan loft. Now, it is run in tall sky scraper buildings in the U.S. and internationally.

From high quality leather and skilled hands, the first products produced by the brand name were leather handbags. Coach has since then evolved into many other areas of fashion with unsurpassed quality and customer service.

Till this day they have continued to exhibit excellent workmanship. Handbags are not the only part of the collection. It also consists of various women’s accessories such as wallets, leather cases, wristlets, scarves, gloves, bracelets, watches, hats and so much more. Coach even has a line for men that includes briefcases, messenger bags, watches, belts, ties, and much more. It’s baby line has expanded over the years also. More and more items keep popping up year after year.

Other than the ever popular handbag, you can find a complete line of women’s leather shoes, which has been quite successful in the fashion world this past year. Years ago the brand struggled to keep a wide market due to their products only appealing to a specific group. Now, not only are they famous for their quality handbags, they are also on top of the market with many other leather products.

Back in the early years, the solid colored handbags and shoes were not popular with the hipsters and teens. A fresh and younger look was needed to make sells. Once they started expanding their product lines, they started integrating the newest craze and trendiest styles in fashion into their designs. Once this was done, the catalogs slowly built up into the level of diversity you now see.

Now, when you enter a Coach store you won’t only see handbags, but women and men’s shoes that range from loafers, flip flops, and boots. They also carry boots for men. They have a select clothing line and also have office furniture and eye wear.

The same skilled craftsmen who hand craft the handbag also put the same craftsmanship into making their shoes. You can see the high quality in every detail of the shoe. Just take a look at the meticulous work that was put into each item made through its detailed design. The trimming and stitching is perfect in every way.

Each Coach product made whether it be a handbag, wallet, travel bag, or shoe are all made with the same clarity and quality as was given over 60 years ago. Coach has stuck to consistency and tradition, but at the same time adapted to more modern times. It will be a company that is still around for many years to come.

To find these amazing products, you must first go to the place that offers the best of everything, the internet. The internet offers all Coach products at reduced prices. Ebay for instance, has stores that have designer everything at a fraction of what you would pay in-store. They also have live auctions that allow people like you and me sell their new and slightly used items for pennies on the dollar. You can get a brand new Coach handbag for $75.00 instead of the $275.00 you would pay in the stores. Now, that is savings!

So, go ahead and do a search for your next pair of shoes or anything and watch the savings pile up. You won’t regret your smart move.

Oversized handbags usually provide easy access, long handles for over the shoulder carrying, cell phone pockets, zip pockets, fold over flip pockets and hold a lot of necessary items needed for any occasion.

Not only do designer handbags make you feel good about yourself, they present you as a person of the present era or, of modern tastes.

Some women like the oversized handbag because it functions as two bags in one. Not only does it serve as a purse it can double as a camera case, diaper bag, etc.

You can take your camera with you everywhere you go without looking like you are taking you camera everywhere.

An oversized designer handbag which also functions as a diaper bag does not scream “Look at me! I’m somebody’s tired, frazzled mommy!”. Plus, after you have gone through the frumpiness of pregnancy, then the emotional ups and downs of post-pregnancy, the no time to fix your eyebrows or your nails, just being able to dress up in your favorite designer wear and carry your favorite designer handbag makes you feel a bit more “polished”. It’s an instant pick me up.

Shoes and a great bag will make or break an outfit. And if you need to carry a lot of things, no matter what they are, you can still look fashionable by carrying an oversized designer handbag.

Another nice thing with regards to oversized handbags is that there is no stigma attached to their size. Unlike when you are trying on designer jeans and you think “if I hadn’t eaten that last dessert, these jeans might fit me”. There is no shame in carrying an oversized handbag.

All women will concur that an oversized handbag is a must for adventuring. You can carry sandwiches, snacks, make up bag, cell phone, laptop, keys, hairbrush, hairspray, baby items, pet items, maps, first aid kit, etc.

Designer Handbags are a wearable work of art. The craftsmanship on a really well made bag will captivate you. You may find yourself sitting in the closet looking at the stitching, feeling the silky leather and breathing in that new leather smell. It may be hard for you to bring yourself to actually using it.
